Investigating if ultrasound is harming LPs
Much ado over...  
transport/dac vs integrated player
What’s a stinkin’ PC have to do with the fact that the best sounding CD drives are all in transports? And only use a PC for ripping tracks if you want to avoid years of learning. It's not about A vs B, it's about musical enjoyment    
Experience with iFi SPDIF iPurifier2
I power my iPurifier2 with a cheap LPS. I also connect my player with a glass toslink cable. This enables a "good" toslink connection and a "oh wow" connection for whenever I get "serious."  
DAC failure?
The only DAC that ever failed for me dropped to 0% output with no crackle    
EBTech HumX
EBTech works as a safer version of a cheater plug. If a cheater doesn't work for you, it probably won't. It performs as advertised.  
Any Mixcloud Users Here?
I have never experienced a "nice" mix playing it on a PC or handheld.  
Which DAC Filter - Fast or Slow?

CD and Network Streamers
If you have a PC you can rip any CDs to lossless files and play them on most streamers from $100 up (with USB input.)  I have a fine CD transport but rarely use it..  
A warning about hd tracks

Streaming Services
Had Tidal, Qobuz and Amazon. Kept Qobuz. Just get a Blusound, the best "first" streamer. It will make a fool out of the Mac sound.  
I was almost 14 yrs old when Burn was released, thankfully I think I have aged well.
50 years? It wasn't even recorded until Nov. '73.

Turntable channel imbalance
Every single cartridge has a differing channel balance. You can adjust it in the phono pre.  Or not.
